From the Editor: We've been tracking this threat for years, ever since Keith Fitz-Gerald brought it to your attention back in January 2010. Today, Resources Specialist Peter Krauth weighs in on some recent developments in this story, because three of the commodities he covers can protect you. The Fed can't print these things... Here's Peter: Central banks may have foolish policies, but central bankers are no dummies. They know exactly what they're doing. They even comprehend a few of the implications, too. Which is why it's interesting that some American central bankers have suggested doing away with the debt ceiling altogether. Famed investor Marc Faber recently said, "The question is not tapering. The question is at what point will they increase the asset purchases to say $150 [billion], $200 [billion], a trillion dollars a month." Faber expects the Fed's current QE4 to become "QE4-ever." That could mean years of money printing and ultra-low rates. Even bond king Bill Gross recently chimed in his latest monthly outlook that "The United States (and global economy) may have to get used to financially repressive - and therefore low policy rates - for decades to come." Either way, don't depend on the Fed to save you. You can save yourself

"With central banks on their virtually uninterrupted fiat money-printing spree bound to continue for the next few years, hard assets remain a great place to be," Krauth says. "That being said, some commodities will undoubtedly do better than others."
